New Balance 998 Limited
In a world where fashion is a matter of sustainability and initiatives aimed at respecting the environment, New Balance tries to innovate in terms of upcycling.
In fact, the American footwear brand has released sneakers entirely made from pieces of fabric that accumulate in their manufacturing plants.
“Limited” to a range of 100 pairs, these ultra-unique New Balance shoes are an aesthetic lesson where every piece of material counts.
If the original silhouette is directly inspired by the New Balance 998, the final look is absolutely unique and one of a kind. In fact, no two styles are the same and each pair is delivered randomly.
In terms of materials, the limited 998 models, use surplus suede, mesh, and midsole foam to raise each and every pair. Pigskin overlays, lining and laces are also used to create a unique look.
